Step 4/5

Arrange 5 slices of bacon on a sheet of parchment paper. Place a 6th strip across the middle of the 5 slices and place 4 slices between the 5 bottom slices. Create the basketweave by lifting every other strip on one half and placing another strip of bacon on top of the remaining strips. Place the strips previously folded up back down and fold up the alternating strips up and place another slice of bacon on top. Repeat these steps for both halves. Place the donut on top of the bacon and fold over to cover it in bacon. Bake for 15 minutes at 350° F.

Step 5/5

Cut the top and bottom off of the water bottle. Cut down the center and roll into a tube and secure the ends with tape. Push the tube into the center of the donut to make a hole. Fill the hole with the cream. Cover with melted chocolate and finish by adding assorted sprinkles on top of the chocolate.
